HC Deb 24 June 1926 vol 197 c562W
Mr. BECKETT

asked the Secretary of State for War the approximate average age on retirement of persons in receipt of service pensions, and the average duration of such pensions?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

would refer the hon. Member to the answer given by my right hon. Friend the Financial Secretary to the Treasury on 30th July last to the hon. Member for Blaydon (Mr. Whiteley). No factors have operated during the last two years which would materially affect the figures given on that date.
